The Lower House has risen for a six week recess but before doing so the Premier Colin Barnett introduced legislation to change the powers of the Corruption and Crime Commission to oversee organised crime.

Meanwhile, the Upper House passed Sunday Trading Laws yesterday which the Government hopes to have enacted by August. It prompted one person to tweet Oly suggesting WA consider the daylight saving issue again.

PRE-SELECTIONS

Ian Radisich, the brother of Jaye Radisch who died earlier this year from cancer, will run for the seat of Swan Hills at the next election.

Ms Radisich held the seat for two terms (2001-2008).

Liberal Frank Alban is the sitting member but is not guaranteed to retain it, setting up an interesting contest at next year's poll.

Also, the fallout continues from the Liberal party's pre-selections for the seat of Churchlands where the Premier's preferred candidate Kate Lamont lost to former Army officer Sean L'Estrange.

Colin Barnett expressed his disappointment that Ms Lamont wasn't pre-selected saying the state might have missed out on a future Premier.

He is concerned that this might discourage women from entering politics.

BUSWELL BULLYING?

The Labor Party has alleged that the Emergency Services Minister, Troy Buswell bullied MP Janine Freeman in the Parliament on Tuesday night as she left the chamber in tears.

Ms Freeman says Mr Buswell was disrespectful for not listening to the concerns of her electorate regarding the Koondoola bushfire.

She has accepted his apology but Labor MP's Roger Cook, Peter Watson and Tom Stephens labelled Mr Buswell a bully in the Chamber.

NATIONALS TURMOIL?

Upper House MP Phil Gardiner has announced he will quit politics at the March state election catching his colleagues by surprise.

He is only in his first term and had been pre-selected as the number two candidate on the Nationals Agriculture Region ticket virtually guaranteeing him a seat.

Mr Gardiner says he was disappointed with the pre-selection process and the way that colleague and former leader Max Trenorden was dumped after 26 years of service to the Party.

Tune in for next week's wrap on Friday mornings, 7:10am on 720 ABC Perth.
